Course summary
At Keele University, we’re proud to be consistently ranked in the Top 3 UK universities for student satisfaction, which is testimony to the safe, supportive and welcoming campus we hope you’ll soon call home.The Single Honours Psychology BSc with Placement Year follows the same modular structure as our regular BSc Single Honours Psychology course except that you spend an additional year between level 5 and level 6 working with a placement provider relevant to psychology. This may involve working with those with learning difficulties, in adult mental health or in a research environment, allowing you to apply your psychological knowledge in a relevant practical setting and gain new skills relevant to a professional psychology career. The placement year will enable you to work as a trainee psychologist gaining “on the job” experience. It will also enable you to develop CV, interview, presentation and reflection skills.The course is taught by staff who are actively engaged in research with specialisms in social psychology, developmental psychology, cognition and neuropsychology, biological psychology health and wellbeing and a range of applied areas. The emphasis of the course is on understanding how psychology impacts on everyday life; from developing a sense of self and negotiating personal relationships to influencing judgments about matters of global significance, such as climate change.At Keele we aim to produce psychology graduates who are ready to use their psychology skills and knowledge to make a real difference. The single, major and dual honours Psychology courses at Keele are accredited by the British Psychological Society. Choosing one of these courses is the first step towards becoming a Chartered Psychologist and a requirement for further study and training for a career in psychology. You could take up any number of very interesting careers in psychology, perhaps working as a neuropsychologist or as a clinical, counselling, educational, forensic, occupational or sports psychologist. Whatever path you choose in your working life, the Keele Psychology degree aims to develop a psychological perspective on human behaviour which is valued in a huge range of careers. Many of our graduates choose to pursue exciting careers beyond psychology, including in education, health, social care, management, marketing and many more.
